We mainly focus on our Geckos and Balls but as all reptile addicts we do have our weaknesses. Most of them are just reptiles we are interested in or small side projects. There are a few that we will be looking to expand this season and inventually into larger scaled breeding projects.
Colubrids
We are currently working with a few small species of colubrids. We have Blonde Trans Pecos rats and some Hets for blonde. They are still young and not ready to breed yet, they should hopefully go in the 07-08 breeding season. We will be holding back a good amount to expand with, we will also be purchasing new blood this season. We also are looking to start working with silvers later in 06.
We also have Anery Mexican Night Snakes, they are just cool snakes. Their eyes are amazing. We will probally expand with them slowly over the next few seasons. They are rarley seen and are an attractive display at shows.
We just recently got into Albino House Snakes their colors are awesome, I never really cared for house snakes untill i saw the albinos. There is only a few people in the country working with them, so that too sparked my interest also. They are defenitly interesting snakes and have been enjoyable too work with. We should hopefully have off spring in 07-08.
Pythons
The only other pythons that we are working with right now are Granite Burmese. We will be breeding them in a year or two. I just enjoy there personalities, and ive always been a sucker for big snakes. We are growing them up slowly and are in no rush for babies just yet. After we expand our room sizes we will most likey dedacate a wall to working with larger snakes. I would eventually like to have a few breeding pairs. I have always been a fan of the Burm and am just glad to work with them. Hopefully we will have an availability list in the near future of our CB babies for sale.
Turtles
We have about 40 Curoa Flavomarginatas ... AKA chinese Box Turtles. They have over run our geckos room, snake room, office well you get the idea. Matt is well... obsessed and buys everyone he finds. We do have a few breedable females and about a dozen males he cant part with. We have had eggs in the past and will hopefully be breeding them on a larger scale one day. Matt says he refuses to part with any of them, including the babies, so i guess we will be adding a few more to the collection. Hopefully over time he will sell some of the offspring we produce, but i dont see it happining any time soon..lol
Boas
As of right now we only have Peruvian Red Tails. They started breeding late in the 05-06 season. We will be working on expanding our Boas this season, and have future plans on having a good number of them. We are hoping to collect an exstensive array of local specific and boa morphs.
We are also woking with a small group of Rainbow Boas. We will not have any avaialble for awhile, they are just a small side project that we are dinking around with right now. We just pick up a few here and there when we find something interesting looking. We will expand them as we find and breed them. As of the 05-06 breeding season we had Columbians and Brazilians. We should have offspring in 05-06.
Future Projects
We will be expanding our boa collection this season, we are hoping to add numerous locals and high end morphs. We are hoping to have Hypos, Anerys, albinos, ghosts and dbl het for snows for morphs. We are also looking to add Silver backs (Bolivians), Surinams and Guyanas. I want to be able to have at least a pair of each. I will be looking for the most exceptional animals i can find to put together an outstanding collection, that best examples of each local and morph we can find.
We will also be purchasing Angolans this year. I have always loved these snakes and cant wait to have them in our collection. I want to foucus on a good size breeding project in the future with these animals.
As for pythons, we will always be expanding to our Balls. We will always be adding new blood and morphs into the mix. You can never have enough balls!!!
Bloods ae also of interest right now too us, we may expand next season and incorprate Blood morphs and locals into our collection.
